Despite the fact that many polls show her at or near the top of potential Democratic contenders in 2020 (polling even higher than Vice President Joe Biden)...
...former First Lady Michelle Obama again denied that she has ambitions to seek her husband's former office on Saturday during a speech at the United States of Women Summit. In response to a question form the audience, Obama said she isn't interested in running for office, adding that "it doesn't matter who runs" for the presidency until the US becomes unified.
Obama called the speculation about the Democrats' 2020 candidate "a distraction."
"Well, that's a whole other story because, that's not the answer either. And when I hear people say, 'you run,' it's part of the problem. We still didn't get 'yes we can' right," she said, referencing her husband's 2008 presidential campaign slogan. "It's not 'yes you can,' it's 'yes we can.' And until we get that right, it doesn't matter who runs."
She also correctly pointed out that voters across America - especially people of color - put so much hope in Barack Obama...but he didn't end racism.
"Change starts close to home. So looking for the next person to run … I don't mean to cut that off, but that's been our distraction," she said. "We're going to wait for the next person to save us. We thought it was going to be Barack Obama, but he didn't end racism."

Glad to hear it, those Muslim bastards did enough to ruin this country already!
That's bc she is a He.
I never understood how brief the time span between 2016 and 2020 was until now.
Good, not qualified just like her husband!
Could she pass the physical?
Well gee thanks Michelle. We ALL are so happy you are not considering running for President. (Looking around) I don't think any of us had an idea you were running....so thanks again!
GEEZ, can you imagine?????
She can't cover up her past like Obama did.
As opposed toTrump? I’m not an Obama fan but facts are facts. Obama was at least was a senator with some political and legal background. Trump is a real estate developer. What were you people thinking?
We’re the free red MAGA hats really that important to you?
Yep cant do that it will fail the physical..
Man what comedy we have going on. This beats all of it...Lol
I was hoping she would run for the entertainment value.
I would enjoy hearing her defend her husband's failed policy's and their
lavish vacations while they were in office!
She is busy running in the big three horse races at the moment.
She would be very embarrassed if she did.
But if she did, her platform would be, if you don't vote for Michelle, you are a racist. (Kinda like her husband and his followers)
"Thank God!"
No the jerk Obama made it 20 times worse than it ever was....he and his partners Jackson and Sharpton. Thanks for all your hard work.... all the races really appreciate you. NOT
It’s hard to pretend your not a racist...when you’re a racist.
The man was a sh!t president. That’s the ONLY thing that matters.
2024 is the year she will run. Remember, if trump holds 2 terms, the odds are that the other party gains control of the whitehouse.
If she runs I know someone that has a 308 bullet with her name on it.
She has less experience than her husband. At least she realizes she doesn't have a clue.
good ... we don't need another non qualified Lib / Dem with an attitude in any office - not even dog catcher (if elected). Her husband sent our country in a tailspin.
